Can a tooth being knocked out damage the nerve?

Patient: Description of condition (time of onset, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): Patient: Male 50 years old Previously in good health. This injury: while working in the iron ore cave. A stone splashed from the ground hit the teeth and knocked out 4 upper jaw teeth. One of them was punched into the tooth bed. Now receiving treatment. The tooth fragments were taken out of the tooth bed and a few stitches were given and I have been recuperating. 1 : What care and precautions are needed now? 2 : Do you think the tooth loss in this case will injure other nerves? 3 : Will there be serious after-effects and other complications? 4 : How long do I need to recuperate before I can have my teeth reinstalled? Yang Xiuwen: Thank you for your inquiry, and I am glad to answer the question. You have not stated the time of trauma. Generally, after the trauma occurs, the alveolar bone should be repositioned and the embedded teeth should be extracted. Generally, trauma to the front teeth will not hurt the nerve, and there should be no serious complications if the treatment is timely and not infected. If no restorative dental treatment is done at that time, restorative treatment for missing teeth is usually performed after three months. Of course, you can also choose dental implant restoration treatment. The general restorative treatment takes one week, and the implant restorative treatment usually takes 3-6 months. We wish you a speedy recovery.
